It offers a substantially international clientele a wide scope of expertise across corporate, tax, employment and intellectual property law, augmenting established strengths in the energy and resources and infrastructure spheres.

Strengths

Their level of understanding of Timor Law is excellent and, more importantly, the advice given on achievable outcomes is outstanding.

What distinguishes them is their ability to navigate the technical legal aspects and the political and institutional context, providing advice that is not only legally sound but also implementable.

Work Highlights

Abreu e C&C Advogados advised the International Finance Corporation on the development of the affordable housing PPP in Timor-Leste.

Notable practitioners
Elisa Pereira
Elisa Pereira co-heads the Timor-Leste practice, operating personally across a broad range of practice areas, including the general corporate, employment and foreign investment spheres.

Elisa is the lawyer everyone wants but few deserve. She works tirelessly above and beyond the brief. She's willing to share knowledge and dumb down legal jargon so I am informed in my decision-making.
